Leah Farah, LMHC

About Leah

Leah Farah is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who offers virtual therapy across Florida. She focuses on practical support for stress, anxiety, anger, relationship concerns, and mood struggles. Leah works with adolescents and adults, aiming to build a steady, respectful connection from the first session.

Leah uses a client-centered, strength-based approach that keeps the person’s goals in view. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and on attachment ideas to look at how relationships shape feelings.

Background and approach

Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. Her experience includes work in community mental health agencies and schools, providing individual therapy, family therapy, and case management. That background informs how she helps with parenting stress, blended family issues, and communication problems.

Leah also supports people facing trauma, grief, chronic illness, and compassion fatigue. In sessions she focuses on clear, practical steps you can try between meetings. That can mean skill-building for emotion regulation, communication practice, or strategies to improve sleep and eating patterns.

She treats concerns such as anger, depression, bipolar mood symptoms, and intimacy-related issues. Leah emphasizes the therapeutic relationship as the foundation of change. She invites clients to shape goals together and checks in often about what feels helpful.

Her aim is to support people as they make real-life changes and cope with transitions. Therapy is offered in English and delivered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time and vary in cost depending on location and therapist availability.

Approaches Leah lists

Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist names and does not check training records.

Approach-driven care delivered online

Leah draws on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Attachment-Based ideas to guide online work. Client-Centered Therapy means sessions are shaped around the person’s priorities, with the therapist listening and reflecting to help clients find their own path. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, anger, sleep, and mood. Attachment-based ideas look at patterns in close relationships and how those patterns affect emotions and reactions in daily life.

Choosing the right combination of approaches is a collaborative process. Leah will talk with each person about their goals, past experiences, and what feels most useful, then adapt techniques as therapy progresses. The plan can change over time based on what helps most.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and nonverbal cues, phone sessions work well when bandwith is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed, and text or chat formats can help with quick reflections between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep momentum between meetings.
